Thanks again, David. I finished up yesterday with some satin lacquer and paste wax. So, I'm done and with two days to spare, at that. We fly out early Sunday morning to meet The Wife's birth...
Very nice, indeed!
Thanks for the kind words, David. We said goodbye to our dog back in 2018, just a month shy of his 14th birthday. His urn was the fifth I'd ever made.

Back to the current box,...
Making the tray was a bit fussy. I was shooting for as close a fit as I could get without being too loose or so large that I had to take off a lot of material, all while trying to account for how...
Maybe it's the COVID blues or it just took me a long time to adjust to teleworking full time and not leaving the house every single day. Whatever it was, it seemed to have sapped my motivation to...
Our community has had problems with mail theft over the past few years. Since we have "gang boxes" with a couple dozen mailboxes in one spot, it's a target-rich environment. The police even busted...
Nice shot on the wing. The chickadees completely ignore my game cam. I have mine set to capture video and I've gotten a couple-three nice ones (all YouTube):
Moose legs

You're not alone. Try living in Alaska, where our own country often treats us like another country entirely. I've actually had CS reps tell me, "We don't ship outside the United States." I usually...
A pair of magazine caddies I fumed using 10% ammonia:

Finished with a mix of BLO, beeswax, and turpentine; applied during and after assembly, before fuming.
I can relate, Mark. It hardly seems like it's been more than 2½ years since our 7.0M quake. We had many thousands of aftershocks and they kept us on edge for a while but subside they did and before...
This may be a long shot, Paul but do you live near wetlands? The loud waterdrop sound you described reminds me of the American bittern. You can hear a recording of the call at the link. They tend...
I think Laney based his build on the same source I did: a Woodworker's Journal article (Feb 2009) by Chris Marshall. I'm also in a small garage/shop and I've been happy with it.

Got most of the work done on a new platform for our boiler, water heater, and pressure tank. Just needs a bit of trim now. They'll be here Thursday for the install.

Yes, every year. Being retired military, I'm quite used to the vaccination routine. Even if I weren't, I'd do it anyway since I'm on a couple of drugs that can suppress the immune system.
As a veteran...MSgt, USAF (Ret)...I don't mind being thanked but "you're welcome" always sounds like I'm taking too much credit, so I usually respond with "it was my privilege." I've run into a few...
That was an additional benefit of "cyclonizing" my DC...previously, the impeller screen was prone to frequent blockage when using the jointer, planer, or when cleaning up a lot of handplane shavings....
Now that's what I call using the ol' frugal noodle.
Oh, I agree it can be interesting...and for me, mainly as a mental exercise. On the other hand, I admit that I'm often amused, bemused, and...
Or use the full year.
Yeah...other than being something you can have a little fun with, I don't think there's much to this 'experience'. But if you're really into it, there will be others on...
Paul,

You're welcome, Ken. For your future reference, two online references (of many) made the process quite approachable for me:
Make a Historic Beeswax, Oil & Turpentine Furniture Polish Finish...
Thanks, gents!
Not at all. The finish is not only old school or even historical, it has an added advantage: you can fume right through it. So, I was able to finish the interiors prior to...
Nice. I fumed for the first time just this past weekend...QSWO of course...and wondered how red would turn out.
My wife and I have long kept some kind of basket or box on either side of our loveseat to hold an iPad, magazines/catalogs, tissue, etc. Nothing fancy...but serviceable. A good while back, mine...
